I can't tell if you're serious or not... How can someone say with a straight face that it's unjust people who don't live in a jurisdiction have no say in how it's run?

Most computers I've seen on government networks use a smart card to sign in (I'm sure it depends on which government network). Pull the smart card out, and the device locks. Most people do a good job of taking the card with them,
